I am thankful for the wonderful friends that I met on this board this last year who have sustained me during my dark times.

happy Thanksgiving!

Love to all,

Monique

That is the 'good part' of MC - without MC coming into our lives, we would not have the chance to be friends with this amazing group of a people, we would not gain the knowledge to self manage our long term health, and we would not have friends that we can joke about poop and gas with !!!

Monique and Gabes, I am so with you both!
Without the people on this board I wouldn't have survived.

I'm thankful for my now deceased MIL, who lived with great adversity and was an amazing woman I adored who gave birth to my ex husband, who fathered my two amazing children, who have now given us our 3 amazing grandchildren and whose family I spent Thanksgiving with this year.

Thankful for all my peeps here on PP as well.

Ditto - but let's be grateful that we can all enjoy Thanksgiving - even though it is an American feast/fete/fiesta!! Obviously here in Northern Ireland we have our own peculiar feasts/fetes/fiestas!!!

But I celebrate Thanksgiving with you guys for giving me sanity, help and friendship! The Potty People is a family!! Is my family!!! No question!!!

God Bless you all!

I am SO grateful for meeting everyone here. I don't know where I would have been today if I had not found this forum - I know it would not have been good. THANK YOU ALL! I love my new family.

I am grateful for all of you. I am grateful for not just the emotional support, but for the analytical support in navigating through this mess called MC.

I am convinced that my dr's would have only continued to prescribe marginally effective drugs and would never have introduced me to the lifestyle changes shared by all of you that are the only real way to live a quality life with MC, or for that matter, with any chronic condition.

This forum has been a blessing to me too. I even enjoyed two Thanksgiving day meals without getting sick - and with Normans - thanks to the info I've learned here. So thanks to all for sharing your trials and tribulations. We all have learned from them.
